Snopes Issues Pre-Approval Of All Statements Made During Tonight's Democratic Debate
September 12, 2019
U.S.—With the Democratic primary debates in full swing, many fact-checking websites are preparing to review candidates’ statements for accuracy. Thankfully, Snopes, the most unbiased fact-checking website ever, has found a way to expedite their evaluation process.

Since their original founding in 1957 by the KGB, Snopes has gained a reputation for objectively reporting what someone’s secret motivations probably were, and what they probably really meant when they said something. More recently, they have perfected the art of determining whether a satirical article is hilarious, left-leaning comedy or divisive, conservative-leaning fake news.

As part of their ongoing goal of being able to rush to judgment as quickly as possible, Snopes published a pre-approval of all future statements made by candidates during the Democratic debates.

“While we understand there may be some disagreements among progressive candidates on certain issues, we know that nobody who shares our worldview would ever say anything factually untrue,” Snopes explains in their article.

Snopes also clarified that in the event a candidate does say anything that sounds untrue/conservative, they will automatically conclude that the individual had pure intentions and meant something completely different. As a very last resort, they may change a particular rating to “mixed,” assuming some context was missing.

At publishing, Snopes had also released a fact-check for all future statements by President Trump, rating them all as “False.”

Yet another among the many bullshit sites I've seen blabbing about blather.

 

Snopes was founded by KGB? Then they must be pro Trump.

BTW if you want to know what Snopes said I would suggest their website www.snopes.com.

 

How come nobody agrees with your post?
Maybe you should be giving that some thought.

 

Pretending to cite Snopes. Oi vey.

Finally got to sit down after cooking maniacally all day.

 

The article was clearly satire.

 

Y’all ready for the sound bite competition tomorrow? Get ready to cheer uncontrollably at short applause-break statements, petty attacks and over simplified platitudes. With any luck, the moderators will be up to par and we’ll come away with zero insight as to what the candidates motivations might actually be. Who knows, we might even get some cheap pandering to the Hispanic community, I’m sure they love when politicians speak in broken Spanish, it’s not patronizing at all.

 

Im looking to hear more from Yang, unfortunately all I tend to hear is UBI, I know he has other stances but it seems like he needs to stop coming back to that every time he talks.

I have mostly negative feelings towards Warren and I hope to clean the slate and hear her with with a different bias attached. I think my feelings on her may be unfair so Im going to listen knowing that a lot of it stupid stuff, but theres things to glean.

 

My post was pretty snarky, I just hate the whole debate layout. Nobody really gets ample time to convey a coherent message, so the whole thing just devolves into a jab-fest where everybody is looking to make a sound bite go viral.

 

I don't think Maris is much in for satire.

 

I've heard some candidates speak in apparent perfect Spanish.

 

Beside the point. It’s still a cringeworthy attempt at pandering to a large demographic. Just blatant and stupid. Democrats thinking Hispanics are dumb enough to be captivated by this is just insulting. Dumb ass white people loved it though, and I guess that’s a pretty large demographic.
